Fiesta Lime Chicken Recipe

If you’ve had Fiesta Lime Chicken form Applebee’s and loved it, then this is the recipe for you! Packed full of Tex Mex flavors, this easy chicken dinner is perfect for a tasty weeknight meal.

Fiesta Lime Chicken is a classic on the Applebee’s menu, and it’s always one of my top choices when I want a treat! My recipe not only contains all of the flavors of the original dish, but it’s actually healthier for you too! If you order it at the restaurant, it will contain 1200 calories, but my version is less than 500!

I love to serve this chicken with rice, fresh pico de gallo, and lime slices for a flavorful and full meal. You can also serve it with a fresh green salad or even refried beans.
